There is no standard for how often to breastfeed a newborn baby. As long as the child is hungry and crying, the child should be fed with breast milk or formula. As long as the child is hungry, the child should be fed in a timely manner. In addition, parents can assess how often they feed their children and whether the amount of milk they feed is sufficient by observing their child’s weight and the amount of urine they urinate. If the child urinates more than ten times a day and the child’s weight gain is fast, for example, if the child’s weight gain is more than 800 grams per month in the first three months, it means that the number of feedings is more appropriate. Otherwise, if after breastfeeding, the child urinates less than ten times a day and the weight gain does not reach the standard. In this case, the child should be fed more frequently, because it means that the amount of milk is not enough. As you can see above, newborns are not fed according to how long they are fed, but according to their needs.
